I ran another update today and it seemed that all the patches installed OK.
Checked Add/Remove Programs, checked the registry, and the patches are all
there. It's strange that when WU install the patch KB837001 (MS04-014), it
took a rather long time to complete (nearly 10 minutes for me).

So far, I have not notice any side-effects. So it's a case of monitoring the
servers and see if any errors will come up.

One would think that when patches are released, that they have been
thoroughly regression tested. But when patches are deemed critical, you have
little choice but patch, and patch quickly.

Thanks to everyone who has responded.
